Jamye Shaw

Jamye Shaw’s pageantry experience began in the early 70s as a favor to a friend. This small favor led to more requests for her work, and this eventually expanded into the much demanded and highly acclaimed business that it is today. Until now, her reputation, which is known coast-to-coast, has only been spread by word of mouth. Her designs and creations have appeared at every level of pageant competition, from local pageants to the Miss America and Miss USA stages.
